After first term finals, Paul finds himself at the top of his medical school class. With this little success, his confidence is boosted up, and he feels like he can achieve anything. His parents had always encouraged and supported his dream of being a doctor. And all the encouragements and the high standards that he set for himself had definitely helped getting him to where he was.. Paul now feels like he is on top of the world. The good result motivates him further, and he works even harder than before by setting challenging goals for himself. He graduates from the medical school as a top student, and with all the confidence and pride in the world, he strives to become a doctor. His parents are still supportive and encouraging. But what is motivating Paul now is recognition, fame, and the taste of success instead of passion or interests in science. He has forgotten the activities and made him happy in life. As he naturally grows more and more authoritative and haughty around his friends who still have yet to get a job, Paul starts to lose friendships that he used to value so much. Now, he is blinded by the vision of his goal of being a rich and successful doctor. He is autocratic and strong, but he loses his partner in doctorate program, loses his friends, and finally becomes resented by some prominent people who could easily turned Paul’s dream into reality. His authoritative personally and his condescending countenance starts to make people envy his career success instead of be supportive

Five years later, Paul is a successful doctor with yearly income of more than a million dollars. He has invented new effective medicines. However, he is not happy. Although he has what anybody would want such as fame, money, and recognition, he has lost what he used to value the most: friendships and a good social life.
